YES this. We should start a community. I hate advertising, absolutely hate it, and do everything I can to avoid it. Pihole โ , YouTube premium โ , sponsorblock โ , Firefox โ , ublock origin โ .
What else am I missing, I want it all blocked!
YouTube Premium โ
Invidious โ
You don't need to pay the people most responsible for the problem (Google). My primary instance is invidious.flokinet.to, but most others provide a good experience. With a small configuration change, SponsorBlock works with Invidious.
Also Firefox is pretty good, but check out Librewolf if you're on Linux. No telemetry, and private by default.
Agreed, but I don't have the time/energy/social skills to moderate it.
